Ep 39. - Let's Talk About Stress & Masturbation + 15 Minute Guided Meditation

Author: Dr. K - Holistic Sexuality Educator March 25, 2022 Duration: 1:31:00

Are you all as stressed out as I am these days? In this episode, I'm analyzing the science behind stress from the perspective of the Stress Response Cycle, and how our sexuality plays into it. In addition, I'm going to discuss different ways to combat it from a holistic approach, including a thoughtful discussion on how mindful masturbation can be used as a tool to aid in wellbeing and stress managementment. As a bonus, this episode includes a 15 minute Chakra balancing body-scan guided medication to help you achieve a restful state of bliss at the end of the day. Get comfy and a settle-in for some serious self-care tonight!

In a world where conversations about sexuality are often reduced to clichés or clinical terms, The Submissive Next Door Podcast offers a different space. Hosted by Dr. K, a holistic sexuality educator and empowerment coach, this series explores the nuanced realities of kink, BDSM, and alternative lifestyles from a place of lived experience. Dr. K brings her multifaceted perspective as a fitness trainer, a practitioner devoted to tantra and embodiment, and someone who identifies as a 24/7 submissive. Each episode is a candid discussion that moves beyond titillation to examine the intersections of erotic intelligence, holistic living, and personal power. You’ll hear thoughtful explorations of how submission, dominance, and conscious intimacy fit into a full, integrated life. This podcast dismantles stereotypes, offering listeners a resource that is as intellectually engaging as it is personally relevant. It’s about the practical philosophy of relationships and self-discovery, framed through an unflinchingly honest and compassionate lens. For anyone curious about the deeper layers of desire and connection, this show provides a grounded, educational, and deeply human entry point. Tune in for conversations that honor the complexity of human sexuality with authenticity and care.
